  • Pros: The combination of durability and  CE marking is a huge win for any pub or bar.
  • Cons: As they are not designed to be stackable, they may require more shelf space.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Anchor Inn, a popular harbourside pub in Falmouth, was struggling with a mix-and-match collection of glasses that were constantly chipping and  weren't all compliant with weights and  measures laws for their spirit sales.

"Our glassware was a real headache. We were losing money on breakages and  were always on edge about being compliant. Switching to the Utopia DY283 glasses has been brilliant. They're tough, they look professional, and  the CE mark takes a massive weight off our shoulders."

Robert Davies – Pub Landlord

After switching, The Anchor Inn saw a 35% reduction in their annual glassware replacement budget and  achieved 100% peace of mind during spot checks.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon delivery, carefully unpack and  inspect every glass for chips or cracks that may have occurred in transit.
  • Before their first use, ensure all glasses are washed thoroughly in a commercial glasswasher to remove any dust or residue.
  • Store glasses upright on non-slip shelf liners to promote air circulation for drying and  to prevent rim chips.
  • Organise your storage area to ensure easy access during busy service periods, reducing the risk of accidental breakage.

Keeping It Going

  • Always use a dedicated glass rack in your dishwasher to minimise contact and  prevent scratches between items.
  • Regularly check glasses for any new damage before use and  immediately remove any compromised items from service.
  • To maintain clarity and  sparkle, use a glass renovating product every few months to remove non-rinsable residue.
  • Avoid stacking these glasses, as this can create pressure points and  lead to cracks or breakages over time.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Glassware

Need a hand picking the perfect glasses for your business? Here are a few key things to consider.

Material Matters

For a bustling commercial environment, toughened glass is a must. It resists the thermal shock of hot dishwashers and  is far more durable against knocks than standard glass.

The Importance of the CE Mark

If you're serving draught beer, wine by the glass, or spirits with mixers, using CE-marked glassware isn't optional—it's a legal requirement to ensure accurate measures.

Capacity and  Versatility

A hi-ball glass around the 280ml-350ml mark is incredibly versatile. It's the perfect size for everything from a rum and  coke to an orange juice, making it a real space-saver.

Stacking and  Storage

Is storage space tight? Look for glasses specifically designed to be stackable. While the Utopia DY283 glass is not stackable, knowing this helps you plan your back-bar layout effectively.

Value in Volume

Buying glassware in larger case sizes, like this pack of 48, almost always offers a lower cost-per-unit and  ensures you have enough spares to cover breakages during peak times.
